		<description>Grail, thanks for the link to prisonplanet. I read the complete article by Gary North.  If this doesn&#039;t wake people up, I don&#039;t know what will.

I would advise everybody to read this article. Click on the links in Grail&#039;s comment and then sit quietly and reflect on what you just read.

The $2Trillion that Timothy Geithner and Ben Bernanke pledged at the G7 meeting is just a drop in the bucket. Recall what Robert Zoellick, president of the world bank told the members, that any effort to  keep bail-out money at home would only worsen the global crisis.  He said the issues we are dealing with do not stop at a nation&#039;s borders. 

In other words, we (the American taxpayers) are expected to pick up the tab for everybody else. Read between the lines and pay very close attention to everything Obama says and does.  While he keeps requesting more and more money, out of the other side of his mouth he has begun cautioning us not to expect too much, too soon. (Give me all the money I ask for just don&#039;t watch too closely what I do with it.)

PLEASE everybody - read this article linked in Grail Guardian&#039;s comment - this is what is coming down the road.</description>

Do you mind me asking where you purchased your silver? I have been looking into that but there are just so many and I really do not know who to trust.

If you do not want to comment I understand.</description>

		<description>The way Bush and Paulson pushed the TARP bail-out money as the remedy to fix the CRISIS that only the government was big enough to fix should have been a warning to everybody.  Henry Paulson was almost hysterical when he went before congress to plead for this money.He said we need the money immediately for the banks to be able to start lending again and get the economy jump started. With Ben Bernanke at his side he implored congress to help the banks help the people. Yeah, folks just what did they do with this first give-away?
For once Chuck Schumer used a little common sense.  He said he was afraid that without oversight the banks would just stick the money under their mattress. This common sense didn&#039;t last long and before you knew it he had jumped on the bandwagon with the rest of the big spenders.

IMO John McCain was the worst offender here. To gain a little extra publicity for his campaign he courageously stopped his campaigning and came back to Washington to provide some needed lunacy to the equation, urging Obama to do the same - which he did. I thought at the time - at last, a sensible voice to caution everyone to take a deep breath and give this matter some thought before putting the American people in debt for generations to come. Boy was I ever wrong. McCain turned out to be just another dumb politician reaDY TO SELL OUT the country for a few headlines.

At any rate, the banks got the money,(crisis too dire to take time to set up rules as to how the money was to be used) and wonder of wonders, they changed the TARP plan and no lending was done.  The banks kept the money and bought up other banks and played twiddley winks while Main Street collapsed and mortgages were foreclosed. This was the Bush Administration telling us to kiss their a## as they went out the door.

Now, with a new administration we should see some improvement, right?  WRONG - same old song with a differenr orchestra.

Don&#039;t be fooled folks.  This little song and dance Obama is performing for us now is just another step in the plan to have the big banks control the whole country.

Until enough of us stand up and speak out, the show will continue.  Timothy Geithner is just another one of the group. Don&#039;t expect this hand-picked member of the team to do anything to upset the status quo. Surely you have wondered why he got a free pass on his tax cheating haven&#039;t you? He&#039;s just one of the boys. Dedicated to the complete takeove of this country by the big banks ala David Rockefeller.

Do some readiong and researching and WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!!!!

Keep it going, Diamond.</description>

		<description>I wss in Wells Fargo yesterday doing a wire transfer (for buying silver bullion)and the woman doing the transaction was royally pissed.  And she&#039;s not the only WF employee I&#039;ve talked to that know that WF was forced to take the gov. money and are now getting the bad PR about the planned meeting in Las Vegas.

I&#039;ve been giving &quot;investment&quot; advice to several bank people...as in, go find a nice credit union or safe local bank (the ones in town not taking TARP funds and there are several I&#039;ve researched and am doing business with) for starters...</description>
